Like a Record

About This Movie

So, 'Like a Record' is this charming little animated piece that brings a unique warmth to the screen. You’ve got this walking, singing cassette tape on a journey through Calgary, and it’s surprisingly touching. The animation has this hand-drawn vibe that feels genuine, capturing the essence of the early 90s perfectly. The pacing is relaxed, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of nostalgia while the tape looks for a new home. Themes of obsolescence and the longing for connection resonate throughout, with a few moments that tug at the heartstrings without going overboard. It’s distinctive, you know? Not your usual animated fare, but it sticks with you, kind of like that old mixtape you can’t bear to throw away.
